* btrfs: discard: Use the correct style for SPDX License IdentifierNishad Kamdar2020-04-201-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch corrects the SPDX License Identifier style in header file related to Btrfs File System support. For C header files Documentation/process/license-rules.rst mandates C-like comments (opposed to C source files where C++ style should be used). Changes made by using a script provided by Joe Perches here: https://lkml.org/lkml/2019/2/7/46.

* btrfs: have multiple discard listsDennis Zhou2020-01-201-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Non-block group destruction discarding currently only had a single list with no minimum discard length. This can lead to caravaning more meaningful discards behind a heavily fragmented block group. This adds support for multiple lists with minimum discard lengths to prevent the caravan effect. We promote block groups back up when we exceed the BTRFS_ASYNC_DISCARD_MAX_FILTER size, currently we support only 2 lists with filters of 1MB and 32KB respectively.

* btrfs: limit max discard size for async discardDennis Zhou2020-01-201-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Throttle the maximum size of a discard so that we can provide an upper bound for the rate of async discard. While the block layer is able to split discards into the appropriate sized discards, we want to be able to account more accurately the rate at which we are consuming NCQ slots as well as limit the upper bound of work for a discard.

* btrfs: calculate discard delay based on number of extentsDennis Zhou2020-01-201-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | An earlier patch keeps track of discardable_extents. These are undiscarded extents managed by the free space cache. Here, we will use this to dynamically calculate the discard delay interval. There are 3 rate to consider. The first is the target convergence rate, the rate to discard all discardable_extents over the BTRFS_DISCARD_TARGET_MSEC time frame. This is clamped by the lower limit, the iops limit or BTRFS_DISCARD_MIN_DELAY (1ms), and the upper limit, BTRFS_DISCARD_MAX_DELAY (1s). We reevaluate this delay every transaction commit.

* btrfs: track discardable extents for async discardDennis Zhou2020-01-201-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The number of discardable extents will serve as the rate limiting metric for how often we should discard. This keeps track of discardable extents in the free space caches by maintaining deltas and propagating them to the global count. The deltas are calculated from 2 values stored in PREV and CURR entries, then propagated up to the global discard ctl. The current counter value becomes the previous counter value after update.

* btrfs: handle empty block_group removal for async discardDennis Zhou2020-01-201-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | block_group removal is a little tricky. It can race with the extent allocator, the cleaner thread, and balancing. The current path is for a block_group to be added to the unused_bgs list. Then, when the cleaner thread comes around, it starts a transaction and then proceeds with removing the block_group. Extents that are pinned are subsequently removed from the pinned trees and then eventually a discard is issued for the entire block_group. Async discard introduces another player into the game, the discard workqueue. While it has none of the racing issues, the new problem is ensuring we don't leave free space untrimmed prior to forgetting the block_group. This is handled by placing fully free block_groups on a separate discard queue. This is necessary to maintain discarding order as in the future we will slowly trim even fully free block_groups. The ordering helps us make progress on the same block_group rather than say the last fully freed block_group or needing to search through the fully freed block groups at the beginning of a list and insert after. The new order of events is a fully freed block group gets placed on the unused discard queue first. Once it's processed, it will be placed on the unusued_bgs list and then the original sequence of events will happen, just without the final whole block_group discard. The mount flags can change when processing unused_bgs, so when flipping from DISCARD to DISCARD_ASYNC, the unused_bgs must be punted to the discard_list to be trimmed. If we flip off DISCARD_ASYNC, we punt free block groups on the discard_list to the unused_bg queue which will do the final discard for us.

* btrfs: add the beginning of async discard, discard workqueueDennis Zhou2020-01-201-0/+23
When discard is enabled, everytime a pinned extent is released back to the block_group's free space cache, a discard is issued for the extent. This is an overeager approach when it comes to discarding and helping the SSD maintain enough free space to prevent severe garbage collection situations. This adds the beginning of async discard. Instead of issuing a discard prior to returning it to the free space, it is just marked as untrimmed. The block_group is then added to a LRU which then feeds into a workqueue to issue discards at a much slower rate. Full discarding of unused block groups is still done and will be addressed in a future patch of the series. For now, we don't persist the discard state of extents and bitmaps. Therefore, our failure recovery mode will be to consider extents untrimmed. This lets us handle failure and unmounting as one in the same. On a number of Facebook webservers, I collected data every minute accounting the time we spent in btrfs_finish_extent_commit() (col. 1) and in btrfs_commit_transaction() (col. 2). btrfs_finish_extent_commit() is where we discard extents synchronously before returning them to the free space cache. discard=sync: p99 total per minute p99 total per minute Drive | extent_commit() (ms) | commit_trans() (ms) --------------------------------------------------------------- Drive A | 434 | 1170 Drive B | 880 | 2330 Drive C | 2943 | 3920 Drive D | 4763 | 5701 discard=async: p99 total per minute p99 total per minute Drive | extent_commit() (ms) | commit_trans() (ms) -------------------------------------------------------------- Drive A | 134 | 956 Drive B | 64 | 1972 Drive C | 59 | 1032 Drive D | 62 | 1200 While it's not great that the stats are cumulative over 1m, all of these servers are running the same workload and and the delta between the two are substantial. We are spending significantly less time in btrfs_finish_extent_commit() which is responsible for discarding.
